Definitions

  • a method consistent with the present invention relates to targeting specific cell populations using cell-binding agent maytansinoid conjugates linked via a non-cleavable linker. Another method consistent with the present invention is a method of making the conjugate.
  • a composition consistent with the present invention relates to novel cell-binding agent maytansinoid conjugates where the maytansinoid is linked via a non-cleavable linker to the cell-binding agent.
  • Another composition consistent with the present invention relates to novel maytansinoid esters.
  • Maytansinoids are highly cytotoxic drugs. Maytansine was first isolated by Kupchan et al. from the east African shrub Maytenus serrata and shown to be 100- to 1000-fold more cytotoxic than conventional cancer chemotherapeutic agents like methotrexate, daunorubicin, and vincristine (U.S. Pat. No. 3,896,111). Subsequently, it was discovered that some microbes also produce maytansinoids, such as maytansinol and C-3 esters of maytansinol (U.S. Pat. No. 4,151,042). Synthetic C-3 esters of maytansinol and analogues of maytansinol have also been reported (Kupchan et al., 21 J.
  • Examples of analogues of maytansinol from which C-3 esters have been prepared include maytansinol with modifications on the aromatic ring (e.g. dechloro) or at the C-9, C-14 (e.g. hydroxylated methyl group), C-15, C-18, C-20 and C-4,5.
  • the naturally occurring and synthetic C-3 esters can be classified into two groups:
  • Esters of group (b) were found to be much more cytotoxic than esters of group (a).
  • Maytansine is a mitotic inhibitor.
  • Treatment of L1210 cells in vivo with maytansine has been reported to result in 67% of the cells accumulating in mitosis.
  • Untreated control cells were reported to demonstrate a mitotic index ranging from between 3.2 to 5.8% (Sieber et al., 43 Bibl. Haematol. 495-500 (1976)).
  • Experiments with sea urchin eggs and clam eggs have suggested that maytansine inhibits mitosis by interfering with the formation of microtubules through the inhibition of the polymerization of the microtubule protein, tubulin (Remillard et al., 189 Science 1002-1005 (1975)).
  • Maytansine has also been shown to be active in vivo. Tumor growth in the P388 lymphocytic leukemia system was shown to be inhibited over a 50- to 100-fold dosage range, which suggested a high therapeutic index; also significant inhibitory activity could be demonstrated with the L1210 mouse leukemia system, the human Lewis lung carcinoma system and the human B-16 melanocarcinoma system (Kupchan, 33 Ped. Proc 2288-2295 (1974)).
  • the maytansinoids are highly cytotoxic, they were expected to be of use in the treatment of many diseases such as cancer. This expectation has yet to be realized. Clinical trials with maytansine were not favorable due to a number of side effects (Issel et al., 5 Cancer Treat. Rev. 199-207 (1978)). Adverse effects to the central nervous system and gastrointestinal symptoms were responsible for some patients refusing further therapy (Issel at 204), and it appeared that maytansine was associated with peripheral neuropathy that might be cumulative (Issel at 207).
  • conjugates containing linkers with disulfide bridges between monoclonal antibodies and catalytically active protein toxins were shown to be more cytotoxic than conjugates containing other linkers.
  • Lambert et al. 260 J. Biol. Chem. 12035-12041 (1985); Lambert et al., in Immunotoxins 175-209 (A. Frankel, ed. 1988), and Ghetie et al., 48 Cancer Res. 2610-2617 (1988). This was attributed to the high intracellular concentration of glutathione contributing to the efficient cleavage of the disulfide bond between an antibody molecule and a toxin.

  • Cleavable linkers are linkers that can be cleaved under mild conditions, i.e. conditions under which the activity of the maytansinoid drug is not affected. Many known linkers fall in this category and are described below.

  • linkers can be cleaved by peptidases. Only certain peptides are readily cleaved inside or outside cells, see e.g. Trouet et al., 79 Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 626-629 (1982) and Umemoto et al. 43 Int. J. Cancer, 677-684 (1989).

  • Some linkers can be cleaved by esterases. Again only certain esters can be cleaved by esterases present inside or outside cells. Esters are formed by the condensation of a carboxylic acid and an alcohol. Simple esters are esters produced with simple alcohols, such as aliphatic alcohols, and small cyclic and small aromatic alcohols.

  • An example of an appropriate control for testing whether a linker is substantially resistant to cleavage is a linker with a chemical bond, such as a disulfide bond, that is susceptible to cleavage by any of the agents described above.
  • a linker is substantially resistant to cleavage by measuring the stability of the conjugates by ELISA, HPLC, or other suitable means, over a period of time extending from between a few hours to several days, typically 4 hours to 5 days.

  • the trastuzumab-SMCC reaction mixture was gel-filtered through a 1.5 ⁇ 4.9 cm pre-packed column of Sephadex G25 resin equilibrated in Buffer A.
  • the load and elution volumes were according to manufacturer's instructions (Amersham Biosciences).
  • the concentration of the modified antibody solution was assayed spectrophotometrically using the extinction co-efficient described above.
  • the yield of modified antibody was 88% based on protein concentration.
  • the modified antibody was reacted with a 1.7-fold excess of DM1 over linker (assuming 5 linkers per antibody).
  • the reaction was carried out at 10 mg/mL antibody concentration in Buffer A (94% v/v) with DMA (6% v/v). After addition of DM1, the reaction was incubated at room temperature for 16.5 hours with stirring.
  • the conjugation reaction mixture was gel-filtered through a 1.5 ⁇ 4.9 cm pre-packed column of Sephadex G25 resin equilibrated in Buffer B.
  • the load and elution volumes were according to manufacturer's instructions (Amersham Biosciences).
  • the number of DM1 molecules linked per mole of trastuzumab was determined by measuring absorbance at both 252 nm and 280 nm of the eluted material.
  • the DM1/antibody ratio was found to be 3.13 and the conjugation step yield was 95.7%.
  • the overall yield of conjugated trastuzumab was 84% based on the starting antibody.
  • the resulting conjugate was analyzed for binding, cytotoxicity, specificity, extent of aggregation and free drug content.
  • trastuzumab-SMCC-DM1 conjugate is both highly toxic (IC 50 3.6 ⁇ 10 ⁇ 12 M on antigen-positive cell line) and specific (IC 50 greater than 3.0 ⁇ 10 ⁇ 9 M on antigen-negative cell line).
  • trastuzumab antibody and trastuzumab-SMCC-DM1 were compared using the HER2ECD plate-binding assay provided by Genentech. The results are shown in FIG. 24 . Both the naked antibody and conjugated version bind with an apparent K D of 5.5 ⁇ 10 ⁇ 11 M. Thus, conjugation with DM1 does not alter the binding affinity of trastuzumab.
  • trastuzumab-SMCC-DM1 conjugate were evaluated using a continuous exposure clonogenic assay. The results are shown in FIG. 25 .
  • Peak 1 represents multimer
  • peak 2 represents dimer
  • peak 3 represents monomer.

  • the antibody was modified using a 7.0-fold molar excess of SIAB at 20 mg/mL antibody.
  • the reaction was carried out in Buffer A (95% v/v) with DMSO (5% v/v) for 2 hours at room temperature with stirring in the dark.
  • the Trastuzumab-SIAB reaction mixture was gel-filtered through HiPrep 26/10 Desalting Columns equilibrated in Buffer A. There appeared to be interference at 280 nm from the SIAB reagent, so the yield of modified antibody was assumed to be 100% and a modification of 5 linkers/antibody was assumed for determination of the amount of DM1 in the conjugation reaction.
  • the modified antibody was reacted with a 1.7-fold excess of DM1 over linker assuming 100% yield and 5 cross-linkers/antibody as stated above.
  • the concentration of antibody in the reaction was estimated to be 12.5 mg/mL and the reaction was carried out in Buffer A (97% v/v) with DMA (3% v/v). After addition of DM1, the reaction was incubated at room temperature in the dark for 16.5 hours with stirring.
  • Protein containing fractions were pooled, filtered and measured by absorbance at 252 and 280 nm. Samples of the conjugate were tested for endotoxin level, binding, specific and non-specific cytotoxicity, % monomer and free drug level.
  • trastuzumab-SIAB-DM1 conjugate is both highly toxic (IC 50 5 ⁇ 10 ⁇ 12 M on antigen-positive cell line SKBR3) and specific (IC 50 greater than 3.0 ⁇ 10 ⁇ 9 M on antigen-negative cell line, A375).
  • trastuzumab antibody and trastuzumab-SIAB-DM1 were compared using the HER2ECD plate binding assay provided by Genentech. The results are shown in FIG. 27 . Naked trastuzumab and trastuzumab-SIAB-DM1 had similar binding affinities (1.2 ⁇ 10 ⁇ 10 M for the antibody and 1.9 ⁇ 10 ⁇ 10 M apparent K D for the conjugate).
  • the conjugate was analyzed using a TSK3000 size exclusion column ( FIG. 29 ). Peak 1 represents dimer and peak 2 represents monomer. The area under each curve divided by total peak areas represents the peak's contribution to the sample. The conjugate sample was found to be 96.4% monomer.
  • the percent of free drug was measured by ELISA and was found to be 0.35%.
  • the conjugate was tested using a chromatographic LAL test and found to contain ⁇ 0.04 EU/mg.
